Quantum Leap Shakeup: Blindspot EP Takes Over as Showrunner on Reboot

In the new Quantum Leap, it has been 30 years since Dr. Sam Beckett (played by Scott Bakula in the original series) stepped into the Quantum Leap accelerator and vanished.

Quantum Leap is set to make its NBC debut on Monday, Sept. 19 at 10/9c (leading out of The Voice).

NBC’s Quantum Leap reboot is undergoing a behind-the-scenes shakeup, with Blindspot creator Martin Gero — who had been serving in an EP capacity on the series — taking over as showrunner, TVLine has confirmed.
